Glenn Carroll joins CHI Hotels & Resorts as Senior Vice President Sales and Marketing

Malta-based hotel operator CHI Hotels & Resorts (formerly Corinthia Hotels International) has appointed Glenn Carroll to the strategic position of senior vice president for sales and marketing. Glenn is expected to take up his new position in October of this year.

This senior appointment follows the reorganization of the company’s sales and marketing structure some twelve months ago. Glenn will report directly to CHI’s CEO and managing director, Tony Potter, while all of the senior sales and marketing team will report directly to him. In addition to controlling all sales and marketing and branding activity, Glenn will be joining the senior team of CHI with the overall responsibility of developing the company’s strategy as it aggressively extends its portfolio of hotels under the Corinthia, Wyndham and Ramada brands.

Glenn will be based in Hammersmith, London, in the Wyndham Hotels Group’s international offices, where he will establish a CHI Hotels & Resorts presence following the joint venture agreement between the two companies.

Glenn Carroll’s previous background includes almost twenty years experience in senior sales and marketing positions with Expotel, InterContinental Hotels & Resorts, Millennium & Copthorne Hotels, Park Plaza Hotels and more recently as group sales and marketing director for Como Hotels & Resorts and vice president sales and marketing Europe for Oberoi Hotels & Resorts.

Commenting from CHI’s offices in Floriana, Malta, Tony Potter said, “The new sales and marketing structure and executives that we announced a year ago have established our priorities and strategies effectively and it is now time for a professional and experienced leader with Glenn’s reputation to head-up what is a great sales and marketing team at CHI. It was always our intention to supplement the restructure with such a key and strategic role and I am particularly pleased that we have done this in a timely manner and with such an ideal candidate, who joins the group at an exciting and important part of our growth strategy.”

Glenn is a British citizen and has a Masters degree in marketing and a post graduate diploma from the Chartered Institute of Marketing. He is also a member of the Chartered Institute of Marketing and a member of the Luxury Marketing Council in the UK.
